(c) Recipient is requesting a change to the grant terms.
REV. 10-30-18 8

Funding Agreement with
State of Arizona, Department of Housing
HOME, HOPWA, HPF, NHTF and HTF Revisions to the Budget. Recipient must
obtain prior written approval from ADOH to move funds from one Budget Activity
Line Item to another. ADOH will only approve changes to the Budget for eligible
costs as outlined in the State Housing Fund program. The following substantial
revisions to the Budget require a contract amendment:
(a) Additional funding sources are added to the project which require a project to
be re-underwritten to determine gap;
(b) Recipient is requesting a change to the loan terms.
WEATHERIZATION Revisions to the Budget. Recipient must obtain written
approval from ADOH to move funds from one Budget Activity Line Item to another.
See Section 10 for changes that affect the Budget.
Recipient shall not retain any funds that are drawn down in excess of immediate cash
needs (to be utilized within fifteen (15) days of draw down) to cover subsequent requests for
reimbursement and must return them to ADOH within thirty (30) days of receipt. Recipient
must also return to ADOH any interest that is earned on these funds that are drawn down
and not expended for eligible costs within fifteen (15) days of draw down.
Section 10. AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS
ADOH may consent to amendment or modification of this Agreement upon written
request of Recipient. All amendments or modifications to this Agreement shall be by mutual
consent of the parties in writing.
Requests for amendments or modifications that result in changes to the Budget must
be supported by a revised Budget that is otherwise consistent with Section 9.
ADOH will respond to the request for amendment or modification to this Agreement
within fourteen (14) business days.
Section 11. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW CONDITIONS
In accordance with 24 CFR 50 and 24 CFR 58 (“Environmental Review”), the
environmental effects of each activity carried out with federal funds must be assessed. Local
government entities are responsible for environmental reviews and requesting a release of
funds from ADOH. Non-profits and other non-governmental entities are responsible for
assisting ADOH with Environmental Reviews before ADOH requests a release of funds from
HUD. Completion of the Environmental Review Record (“ERR”) is mandatory before taking
any physical action on a site or entering into contracts. Only exempt activities such as
architecture, engineering and administration may be undertaken and reimbursed by ADOH
prior to receiving a written release of funds. Exempt activities described in 24 CFR 58.34(a)(1)-
REV. 10-30-18 9

Funding Agreement with
State of Arizona, Department of Housing
(11) are activities that generally have no physical impact on the environment. If federal funds
are involved in a project, neither federal nor non-federal funds may be expended or
committed by contract (conditional or not) for property acquisition, rehabilitation,
conversion, lease, repair or construction activities, until HUD or ADOH has provided written
authorization based on approval of an ERR.
An option agreement (to purchase land) on a proposed site or property is allowable
prior to the completion of the Environmental Review if the option agreement is contingent
upon an ADOH or HUD authorization to use funds based on a completed ERR. The cost of
the option must be a nominal portion of the purchase price.
Projects funded solely with Housing Trust Funds do not require an ERR but are
required to meet the requirements of the State Historic Preservation Act by consulting with
the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). For State Housing Funded projects, Phase I
Environmental Assessments are required to be completed on properties for which new
construction/change in use is proposed, regardless of whether federal or state funds are the
source of funding. Expenditures incurred or obligated by construction contract prior to
ADOH’s release of funds or consultation with SHPO will not be reimbursed by ADOH.
Recipients who had committed or expended non-federal funds to begin a project
before receiving the authorization from ADOH or HUD may still be eligible to use federal
funds on the project under the following circumstances:
(a) Recipients started the project without the intention of using federal assistance
(i.e. as evidenced by other anticipated funding, the original project budget, etc.);
(b) All work on the project ceases once an application for federal funds is made and
an ERR is begun on all activities (i.e. acquisition, construction, etc.). ADOH or
HUD provides authorization to proceed based on the completed ERR.
WEATHERIZATION (DOE WAP, LIHEAP WAP). DOE has made a final NEPA
determination for all activities under this Funding Agreement that are listed in the
State Plan formally approved by DOE and incorporated into this Funding Agreement.
Recipients are responsible for compliance with Section 106 pursuant to 36 CFR Part
800.2 (c)(4).
Section 12. APPLICATION AND OTHER PRE-AWARD COSTS
Recipient may use a portion of the funds provided hereunder to reimburse itself for
exempt activities pursuant to 24 CFR 58.34(a)(1)-(11) such as architecture, engineering, testing
and sampling of asbestos and capital needs assessments and environmental reviews.
CDBG. If Recipient is receiving funding under this Agreement from the CDBG
program, in accordance with federal procedures, Recipient may use funds provided
hereunder to reimburse it or to pay for costs incurred in preparing the application. In
REV. 10-30-18 10

Funding Agreement with
State of Arizona, Department of Housing
no event shall such compensation exceed eighteen percent (18%) of the total funding
provided to Recipient by ADOH.
Section 13. COMPENSATION AND METHOD OF PAYMENT
Subject to availability of and receipt of funds from the State’s Unclaimed Property
Fund (for state HTF funds) and/or the United States Treasury (for HOME, CDBG, COC, NHTF
HOPWA, DOE WAP and LIHEAP WAP funds) and the commitment of other required
funding as indicated in Recipient's application, ADOH agrees to reimburse or advance
Recipient for authorized expenditures according to the Budget in Attachment C. Recipient
must maintain invoices and other similar documentation to support payment expenses under
those generally accepted accounting principles and procedures approved by ADOH and
outlined in 2 CFR 200 as applicable; 24 CFR Parts 44, 92 and 570 as applicable; and 10 CFR 440
and 600 as applicable.
Recipient may request funds only after the date of the executed Agreement and other
legal documents as applicable, provided Recipient has satisfied ADOH funding contingencies
and federal Environmental Review conditions. Requests for reimbursement must be made
using the ADOH Request for Payment form hereby incorporated into this Agreement and
attached as Attachment D. For construction projects, Release of Lien documents must be
attached to the Request for Payment in amounts proportionate to contractor reimbursement
requests.
Recipient must maintain proof of said expenditures including checks, payrolls, time
records, invoices, contracts, vouchers, orders and other accounting documents evidencing in
proper detail the nature and propriety of the respective charges as may be required by
applicable federal rules and regulations, including requirements by the Federal Office of
Management and Budget, and as may be otherwise reasonably required to permit ADOH to
determine or confirm that any such expenditures are prudent and within the Scope of Work.
Recipient’s right to incur expenses under this Agreement shall cease upon expiration
of this Agreement. All requests for reimbursement on expenditures made prior to expiration
of this Agreement must be requested within sixty (60) days after expiration. Unless expressly
authorized by ADOH in writing, expenditures not requested within the sixty (60) day period
after expiration of this Agreement shall be disallowed and all funds shall be reclaimed by
ADOH.
Section 14. FUNDS RECOUPED BY RECIPIENT, INTEREST AND PROGRAM
INCOME
14.1 Definitions. For purposes of this section, the following definitions shall apply:
“Funds Recouped by Recipient” means funds initially provided by ADOH to
Recipient under this Agreement and any matching contributions that are recouped by
REV. 10-30-18 11

Funding Agreement with
State of Arizona, Department of Housing
Recipient when: (1) the funds provided by ADOH under this Agreement or matching
contributions or the proceeds of funds provided by ADOH (including, but not limited to,
equipment or housing) do not continue to be used for an approved purpose or eligible
activity, as described in applicable law or regulations, for the full period of affordability
required by this Agreement; or (2) when a State-assisted homeownership housing does not
continue to be the principal residence of the assisted homebuyer for the full affordability
period required by this Agreement. Funds Recouped by Recipient are subject to all the
requirements of Program Income described below with the exception that Recipient shall not
use Funds Recouped by Recipient for administrative purposes. For this reason, Recipient
must separately account for all Funds Recouped by Recipient.
“Interest” means any compensation paid or to be paid for the use or deposit of the
funds provided by ADOH to Recipient under this Agreement.
“Program Income” means gross income received by Recipient directly generated from
the use of funds provided by ADOH under this Agreement. When Program Income is
generated by housing that is only partially assisted with funds provided by ADOH under this
Agreement or matching contributions, the income shall be prorated to reflect the percentage
of funds provided by ADOH under this Agreement. Program Income includes, but is not
limited to, the following: (1) proceeds from the disposition by sale or long-term lease of real
property purchased or improved with funds provided by ADOH under this Agreement; (2)
gross income from the use or rental of real or personal property acquired by Recipient with
